Description
A PROCESS FOR IMPROVING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A PROCESS CATALYST
TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to a process for improving the effectiveness of a process catalyst. The process comprises treating the process catalyst with a reducing agent selected from the group consisting of hydrazine, oximes, hydroxylamines, carbohydrazide, erythorbic acid, and mixtures thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Catalytic reforming is used in the refining of crude oil to increase the yield of higher octane gasoline which sells at higher prices. In catalytic reforming, the paraffins and naphthenes are passed through the reformer with the goal of minimizing cracking. Instead their structure is rearranged to form higher octane aromatics. Essentially catalytic reforming converts low octane paraffins to naphthenes. Naphthenes are converted to higher octane aromatics. Aromatics are left essentially unchanged.
Refineries generally use a platinum catalyst or platinum alloy supported on a silica or silica-aluminum substrate as the reforming catalyst, although other catalysts, including the oxides of aluminum, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, and silicon can be used.
In the strong reducing environment and elevated temperatures (500°C to 600°C) of the reformer, the catalyst becomes contaminated with metals, such as lead, iron, nickel, vanadium, sulfur compounds, arsenic, and coke. The result is that the catalyst becomes inactive and the efficiency of the reformer decreases. In order to reduce contamination of the reformer catalyst, most reformer catalysts have a guard bed for the catalyst which removes contaminants from the feed stream. Over a period of time.
contaminants still break through to the reformer catalyst and reduce catalytic activity.
As the activity of the catalyst decreases, the reaction temperature of the reformer is increased to maintain the desired output. Additionally, organic chloride containing compounds are fed to the reformer to reactivate the catalyst on a periodic basis or continuously at a low dosage. The activity of the reformer catalyst is a function of surface area, pore volume, active platinum and organic chloride content. The efficiency of the reformer is reduced during operation by coke deposition, chloride loss, and contaminants such as sulfur, lead, heavy metals, and oxygen.
When the catalyst becomes depleted, it is necessary to regenerate the catalyst. The activity of the catalyst can be restored by high temperature oxidation of the coke followed by chloriding. This regenerative process allows the reformer to operate for up to a 24 month period between regenerations. Normally the catalyst can be regenerated at least three times before it has to be replaced and returned to the manufacturer for reclamation.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a process for improving the effectiveness of a process catalyst which comprises: treating said process catalyst with an effective amount of a reducing agent selected from the group consisting of hydrazine, oximes, hydroxylamines, carbohydrazide, erythorbic acid, and mixtures. Indirect evidence and direct evidence indicates that the treatment of the process catalyst by the subject process reduces or retards the formation of metal contaminants, oxygen, sulfur, and coke on the process catalyst. Thus the process could be alternatively
characterized as a process for reducing and/or retarding the contamination of a process catalyst.
Reducing or retarding the contamination of the process catalyst results in the increased effectiveness of the reformer. This is shown by yields across the reformer, higher octane gasoline, and less benzene in the reformate. Moreover, since yields of higher octane gasoline are increased, the refinery can blend lower grade fuels into the gasoline. Furthermore, the reformer can also be operated at lower temperature and pressure thus minimizing coking and cracking while making the same octane gasoline and improving yield. Finally, the refinery can save money and time spent on catalyst regeneration by increasing the life of the catalyst and the time between regenerations.
Process catalysts which benefit from this treatment include reforming, hydrotreating, hydrocracking, isomerization, hydrogenation, and guard bed catalysts. Treating the process catalyst involves adding the reducing agent to a process stream which will enable the reducing agent to come into contact with the process catalyst. Examples of process streams which will provide such contact between the reducing agent and the process catalyst include stripper steam, crude overhead, naphtha, splitter feed, refining feed, and feedlines for chloriding chemicals used in the reformer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This process relates to improving the effectiveness of a refinery process catalyst. It is believed this improved effectiveness results because the treatment reduces and/or retards the contamination of the refinery process catalyst. Sources of catalyst contamination are metals, such as lead, iron, vanadium, and nickel, sulfur compounds, arsenic, and coke.
The reducing agents used in this process for improving the effectiveness a process catalyst are selected from the group consisting of hydrazine, oximes, hydroxylamines (such as N,N-diethylhydroxylamine) ,
erythorbic acid, and mixtures thereof. These reducing agents are described in U.S. Patents 5,213,678 and 4,350,606 which are hereby incorporated by reference. Preferably used as reducing agents are oximes such as the ones described in U.S. Patent 5,213,678 as having the formula:
wherein Rx and R2 are the same or different and are selected from hydrogen, lower alkyl groups of 1-8 carbon atoms and aryl groups, and mixtures thereof. Most preferably used as the oxime are aliphatic oximes, particularly methyl ethyl ketoxi e.
An effective amount of reducing agent used to improve the effectiveness of the process catalyst will depend somewhat upon the specific result wanted: improvement of the reformer yield, improved yield of high octane gasoline, reduced yield of benzene, reducing or retarding the contamination of the refiner. Actually, all these benefits are interrelated, and it is difficult to relate an effective amount of reducing agent to one of these parameters, or state an exact amount of reducing agent which will relate to all benefits wanted. However, it can be stated in general that an effective amount will range from 5 ppm to 100 ppm of reducing agent based upon the catalyst feed stock, preferably from 50 ppm to 100 ppm. The catalyst feed stock typically consists of splitter bottoms, reformer feed, and process streams entering the reformer catalyst. Preferably the reducing agent is added to the process stream continuously.
The following detailed operating examples illustrate the practice of the invention in its most preferred form, thereby permitting a person of ordinary skill in the art to practice the invention. The principles of this invention, its operating parameters, and other obvious modifications thereof will be understood in view of the following detailed examples.
EXAMPLES The following examples will illustrate the use of
MEKOR to improve the efficiency of a process catalyst used in the reformer of a refinery and the octane rating of the gasoline coming out of the reformer which is typically operated at temperatures of 500°C to 525°C and is under a pressure of 200 to 300 psig. The process catalyst was a platinum catalyst arranged on a fixed bed. MEKOR was added to the reformer 41-44 to a pressurized naphtha feed line 25. The temperature of the naphtha feed line was about 250 °C to about 300°C. The refinery used to test the effect of adding
MEKOR to a process stream was a small refinery which refines approximately 10,000 barrels of crude oil per day. The diagram of the refinery is shown in Figure 1.
EXAMPLES
Control Examples C1-C3 in Table I show how the catalyst was working in the reformer before adding MEKOR.
Examples 1-2 in Table II show how the addition of 50 ppm
MEKOR into the naphtha feed line 25 flowing to the splitter tower 55 affected the effectiveness of the catalyst in terms of hours of operation and output.
TABLE I (Control) (Reformer Length of Operation - Before MEKOR Addition)
TABLE II (Reformer Length of Operation - After MEKOR Addition)
Example Start of End of Run Hours of Throughput Run Operation Bbls.
1 10/8/93 1/11/94 2,304 149,125
2 1/16/94 3/26/94 1,668 100,238
3 1,986 124,681 Average
A comparison of the data in Tables I and II clearly shows that the addition of MEKOR to the reformer more than doubles the hours of operation and barrels of throughput when MEKOR is added to the naphtha process stream feeding the reformer and comes into contact with the reformer process catalyst.
A sample of the reformate leaving the reformer before and after the treatment is measured for octane rating, benzene, and aniline. Table III, IV, and V show how the reformer was operating relative to these outputs before MEKOR was introduced into the reformer. Table IV shows how the reformer operated after adding 75 ppm of MEKOR to the naphtha stream (feedpoint 25) flowing to the reformer.

5 1335 180 11968 97.00 -25 91.99
6 1606 252 17211 97.00 -20 86.55
7 1573 276 18891 97.00 -20 87.74
Avg. 1523 95.40 -17 89.45
Tables III and IV show the addition of MEKOR increases yield and octane number and decreases the aniline number.
Table V Benzene Produced From Hydrocracking Reaction
Example Hexane MCP CYH BZE Sum C6 BZE from MEKOR Hydro- ppm Cracking
CIO 2.337 0.367 0.030 9.245 9.642 2.508 0.0 |
10 2.462 1.010 0.045 7.120 8.175 1.041 20.0 |
Table V shows that the addition of MEKOR lowers the amount of benzene produced from the hydrocracking reaction. This is significant because future regulations by the Environmental Protection Agency will limit the amount of benzene in gasoline to less than one percent by weight. Furthermore, if higher octane gasoline can be produced in a higher yield with less benzene, undesirable side reactions will be reduced.
